Democratic members of Congress are calling for U.S. or third-party investigation into an Israeli strike that killed seven World Central Kitchen staffers.
Why it matters: The Israeli Defense Force concluded that the attack was a "serious violation" of its rules, but some lawmakers view the internal probe as inherently untrustworthy.
- "I don't know if ... in the middle of a war, you can consider the IDF the most unbiased source to do an investigation," Rep. Mark Pocan (D-Wisc.) told Axios.
- World Central Kitchen has demanded an independent investigation and called for Australia, Canada, the U.S., Poland, and the U.K. to join the call.
